I have just started exploring the possibility of working in UAE. I am a secondary school science teacher. My wife would want to work (a social worker but happy to do shop/office work). Could anyone offer any info on the following?

School teachers wages or where I can find this out.
Is there a registration process for teachers for example, would I need to register as a teacher?
Is it likely that my wife would get a visa to work?
Do I apply to schools direct?
Is there a teaching agency that can help with job apps?

Thanks

Humphrey

There are a few new teachers on the board, hopefully they will chime in and give you the 411. Good luck in your search Humphrey

The laws in the Middle East are constantly changing so its important to find out the laws and regulations as well as the pay and conditions.
